Minnesota Fats: Pool Legend (Saturn) (サイドポケット2) is a billiards game developed and published by Data East as a sequel to Side Pocket. It was released for the Sega Mega Drive and Sega Saturn in 1995.

When brought to North America, the game was renamed Minnesota Fats: Pool Legend (though was known as Minnesota Fats: The Pool Master during development). It was followed by Side Pocket 3, also released for the Saturn, but only in Japan.

Versions

While the Mega Drive and Sega Saturn versions of Side Pocket 2 share similar gameplay, the Saturn version has an entirely different story mode, complete with full motion video cutscenes. The two versions also have different soundtracks.
